Re: BELGIUM 2016

Azerbaijan and Montenegro? xcrazy Surely they'd have jurors from countries that are more likely to vote for Belgium? :lol: Not that I think it really matters at all when it comes to eurovision points, they just seem like odd choices. I would have had Prehaps Norway and Russia as jurors over Azerbaijan and Montenegro. Both have given a hell of a lot more points to Belgium than they have.

Well the point of international juries should be to have countries from all corners of Europe, to be more representative of what the whole Europe would like and vote for in May

Laura or Tom should win tonight.
If they don't, then don't hope a single second that Belgium would qualify in 2016.

Re: BELGIUM 2016

None of the songs they have are much cop, but Laura's is probably the best.

But you can't please everyone. So imo it's best to try and please the ones more likely to vote for you than throwing a slot away at a country who's never voted for you. Anyway, it doesn't really matter because I doubt being a NF jury for a country will make them more likely to vote for that country in eurovision.

Re: BELGIUM 2016

I don't know what you're all complaining about. I've caught up with the songs and they far exceeded my expectations.

I expected a collection of cheesy made-for-eurovision pop songs. Instead we got some really contemporary and interesting entries.

We can't complain about it being cheesy and old-fashioned, I have to agree and appreciate that they realise the year we're in. I think with Belgium the expectation will always be high, because they have the potentional to choose a top 10 song pretty much every time.

Re: BELGIUM 2016

Hmpf I'm so afraid Laura will win. And I absolutely don't get why. If :ch: and :mt: 2015 didn't reach the final for example why would she?


Whole Europe seems to say we need to send Tom but in Belgium everybody wants Laura -_-

Tom's song would be heard 30000 times because of Highway/Douwe Bob/Other artist's song...

I agree with this. Belgium needs something to stand out - and I think Laura's song does a good enough job of that. "In Our Nature" also does. I like Astrid's song too but I doubt it would qualify to be honest..

To be honest, I'd be happy with any.. but I think it goes:

1) Adil Aarab - In Our Nature
1) Laura Tesoro - What's The Pressure
3) Astrid Destuyver - Everybody Aches
4) Tom Frantzis - I'm Not Lost
5) Amaryllis Uitterlinden - Kick The Habit

Re: BELGIUM 2016

Will the NF be streamed online? Where? When does it start?

Yes, it will be at 20:25CET, you can watch it on the eurovision website.

Re: BELGIUM 2016

It's gonna be fun..I still think Tom will win, people who like his song will just realise that this struggle is real, while Laura's fans will relax by thinking that it's pretty easy to send her.
